"Under normal circumstances, that’s indeed the case, but what if the Corpse King happens to die?" Gaven took quite a while to digest this news.

The Giant Bone King suddenly realized and said, "The Shadow Flyer! It was captured by the Corpse King, and it self-destructed, killing him in the process, haha... If this really happens, the Ridge of Corpses might really be lost. Without his personal presence, the entire Corpses Army would be scattered. The Burning Flames Queen would only need to focus her forces to break through and seize his Soul Pool."

"Yes," Gaven affirmed the Giant Bone King’s analysis. "Man proposes, God disposes. This unexpected event not only exterminated the Corpse King but also completely disrupted our plans. With two territories in hand, the Burning Flames Queen might not surrender so easily."

Originally, he planned to sit back and watch the tigers fight, fully exploiting the conflict between the Burning Flames Queen and the Corpse King. Once they were locked in a fierce battle, he would have absolute say over who would gain his support and thus win the final war.

This way, he could easily take over the third territory, and even the fourth.

Now, with the Corpse King’s death, all seemed futile. If he could choose, he would rather have the Corpse King grasp the secret of manufacturing the Shadow Flyers than be directly blown to death like this.

"Since she refuses to surrender, we’ll force her to," the Giant Bone King suggested without hesitation. "Having two territories might have given the Burning Flames Queen greater power, but it also means her forces are more spread out. We only need to concentrate our forces to assault one territory."

"We have absolute superiority in advanced forces, and can directly penetrate the Soul Pool of the Burning Flames Queen. By then, she will only be at the disposal of our master!"

This is where Gaven differs from these Advanced Undead Lords. He is a Divine Power Presence. Once he occupies a territory, not only does the territory’s Undead belong to him, but the Undead Lord themselves also becomes his subordinate.

"If this war is just between us and the Burning Flames Queen, this is the best strategic tactic. But now with the Ghoul King involved, it can’t be dealt with so brutally," Gaven shared the intelligence he held.

"The Ghoul King’s involvement is inevitable. He has always coveted the ownership of the Plains of Bone, though his ambition far exceeds his capability," the Giant Bone King wasn’t surprised by this news. "Certainly, the recent disturbance in the Plains of Bone gave him an opportunity. Under such circumstances, it’s indeed not suitable for us to continue with internal strife."

"Perhaps the master should focus on the Ghoul King for now. His Ghoul Army has always lacked advantage against our Undead Army, not to mention against the master’s enhanced Undead Slaughter Army,"

The Skeleton Dragon King concurred, "The master is a Divine Power Presence, commanding the Undead, Slaughter, and Plunder, the most effective elements on the battlefield, capable of continuously expanding through war. All we need to do is attack, attack, and attack more. As long as the master possesses stronger power, all problems will be resolved."

Though his words were careless, they struck a chord with the listener.

The opinions of the two Undead Lords, although simple and direct, indeed aligned most closely with his current Divine Position and Divine Nature. Previously, he had always schemed and plotted with them, making full use of various strategic tactics due to his weakness.

Now, having a strong military force in his grasp, to still engage in petty scheming with them seemed somewhat unconvincing.

Overbearing was indeed the best strategic tactic.

Having realized this, Gaven laughed aloud, "From now on, you will be my God’s Chosen. I will bestow upon you the strength of divine nature. You’ve followed me for quite a while now, and it should be clear that neither Slaughter nor Plunder is my primary Divine Position focus. As long as you possess enough strength, what harm is there in imparting that power to you?"

The strength of divine nature?

This change was abrupt, making both the Giant Bone King and the Skeleton Dragon King a bit bewildered.

Gaven tilted the War Ravager toward them and chuckled, "What? You don’t want it?"

"Being chosen by the master is our honor," the Giant Bone King was the first to flip over and kneel on the ground.

Unwilling to be outdone, the Skeleton Dragon King also prostrated on the ground, casting aside the pride of a giant dragon. Compared to the strength of divine nature, what was dignity worth?

Gaven, like bestowing knighthood, placed the War Ravager on the Giant Bone King’s shoulder and declared, "From now on, you are my General of Slaughter. I will grant you the power of Slaughter. May you advance courageously and boldly strike down enemies."

With the conclusion of these words, a point of Slaughter Divinity was injected into the Giant Bone King’s body.

Hou!

As this point of Slaughter Divinity infused, the Giant Bone King couldn’t help but roar to the sky, his Soul Fire wildly surging and condensing, completing its transformation. His Soul Fire wasn’t just blood-red; even his bones were stained the same color.
